russdenney01, look at the other post with the cows that I was talking about. If you want to post stuff you consider controversial, that\'s how to do it. Sometimes, few words are better than a lot of words. Also, better to assume nothing and let the audience reach conclusions on their own.
This is a forum of photographers, not lawyers, or politicians, or philosophers, or sociologists, or such. If your post had crossed the line it would have been removed already. But since it\'s still here, one can conclude it\'s okay. Beyond that I\'m not going to comment on that side of it; honestly I find such discussion boring and useless, at least from a photographic standpoint.
As for the people who are debating publicity, everyone has their reasons for posting (or not posting) their family photos online, I may not understand the rationale but that\'s their family and their right. For example, my immediate family doesn\'t want it, and we all pretty much agree on the rationale why, so we just don\'t do it. But you don\'t see me telling others to not post their personal or family photos online, the same way we (my immediate family) would get quite offended if someone insisted that we should post some or all of our personal or family photos online. My point is that, these things aren\'t even a topic for debate, my family is my family, your family is your family, and that\'s that.
